I give the termination letter at pickup and then email them a copy. What does your handbook have in it related to terminations?? Do you have a two weeks paid notice or deposit??

I do have a 2 week notice required of parents, but I can term either immediately, or with two week notice. I also charge a late fee for payments per day they are late.

To be honest, if you aren't charging them a late fee or any other consequence, its difficult to ask them to follow the rules. I also have a late pick up fee.

If they haven't paid by Tuesday morning at drop off, including the late fee, I don't allow them in the door. No exceptions. They aren't allowed back until all their fees are paid. Cash. No checks.

Here is my term letter:::

TERMINATION OF CARE NOTICE


To the family of:_____________________________________

This termination is effective immediately due to the following reasons::

Failure to pay in a timely manner
Failure to follow contracted schedule


According to the contract you signed on record, there is no refund for any monies paid to the provider, including the 2 week deposit previously paid. This is due to the violation of contract on your part. All if your child's belongings that were here are being returned to you today.
